Pseudo Alarm

We all had our share of false alarms. But nothing compared to the alarm today, and the resultant chaos. The alarm went of somewhere between 11 and 12, sending people flying off the compound. Some weren't fazed by the temporary 'warning', and remained where they were as if nothing happened as people went flying past. Other were glad for a break from their boring class and simply left and went outside to cool out. This leaves Man About College to wonder if there really was a serious threat, would the now-working fire alarms really serve as an effective warning. Especially considering that the occupants of the library were oblivious to the alarm, and continued to work quietly.

Man About College has also noticed that the library's second floor AC has given out AGAIN! Upstairs is now hot, humid and stifling, and not only because of the broken Air Conditioning Unit, but also because the seemingly difficult task of opening the many windows upstairs. Seeing that there is the 'new' rule; no loitering in or around the campus, one would think that make it a priority to ensure that the library is one of the best places to study. And don't even mention downstairs... de library dun small aready.. do you really think that everyone that has no class at any given time of the day can really cram comfortably into the first floor of the building? Especially considering the new set of denim-clad students wandering around the campus since monday. One would think that we wouldn't have to beg for somewhere good to study.

Anyway, seeing that there are always LOTS of vacant classrooms floating around, Man About College is not worried at all about where these new students are going to fit. And Seeing that teachers never have to worry about where they are going to have their classes nor waste a good bit of their class time looking for a classroom, why not just fix one of the classrooms in the middle of the First Term. Sure, it needed fixing since last term before the long summer vacation. So what. Noisy power tools never hindered learning.
